Dog Training Videos
I asked Janet to help me with my older miniature schnauzer, Sigfried. As a puppy he had exasperated me because he had behavior problems that I did not know how to manage nor understand.
Janet recognized Siegfried's behavior immediately as fear-aggression. Her knowledge about Siegfried's behavior helped change my feelings of frustration to compassion and the suggestions she made are making Sigfried a better behaved dog.
